Sir Mikel OBE

Pedro is terrible.

Since leicester have decided to sit back lol.

Thats terrible. Following his instagram I knew she was sick, but I always had hope that she would pull through. She was apparently at the best hospital in all of South America for cancer treatment. All the best wishes to him and his family. I definitely think the club should wear black armbands in support of Willian and his family Saturday.

Coutinho just scored. Along with Tite's comments I would guess, baring catastrophe/injury, his days starting for the selecão are over.

Even with that Miss Kante is by far the best player out there.

First half been ok. Moses looks lively We still suck at creating though.

Moses has put on the best non Hazard Winger display I have seen from Chelsea in a LONG time this half.

Damn that yellow for Mose means he will probably be taken off before Willian.

Thats a penalty!!!

Moses era 2 begins today.

Good lineup

And people were slating him on here during that time too.

Its not really shocking at all honestly. Courtois is capable of the fantastic save here and there, but on a weekly basis he's just as shakey as the rest of our defense. Only difference is he is excused because the people in front of him are shite. His big name is on his time in a fantastic system under Simeone, and under the potential he has. He isnt one of the best in the league, much less the world.

He doesnt hit the first man enough for you with his corners?

Definitely that was one of the few good moments for us, but when did he touch the ball again after that? If I remember he went back on the wing again and faced isolation after that.

Willian didnt do anything because he sucks, but he still demanded the ball a few times in an area where he looked to dictate in the middle. The manager, and team, can take some of the blame too but objectively viewing him today he didnt want it bad enough. We can theorize why, but that much was clear.

Even then that didnt stop Willian from trying to move to the middle and get involved. You want your best players to try to force the issue. Coaching aside, which shouldn't have even mattered seeing as Conte seemed in well over his head as soon as Cahill fucked up with the first goal, the star man has to demand the ball.

Very true, but we all appreciate Hazard for who he is. A guy who is unplayable on a day, but a guy who is also content with letting a game pass him by. Whether or not he showed up today or not Arsenal are, and were, the better side. He can demand to play a part in the game though, and the Hazard out there today was happy to stay on the wing and effectively hide. If he demanded the ball, and look like ass, then ok. He didnt though. He was content with being a passenger.

I don't think he would be the closest thing to messi in Manchester City. He simply didnt TRY to get involved. Even when Silva is running the show for city, and De Bruyne is on the wings he always looks to try to get touches and get involved. Hazard wanted no parts of that today, even when that clown Willian had moved to the middle and tried to get going. He could look like Nolito or Sterling in that squad, but I don't see the KDB or Messi in him. Not anymore at least. Maybe when he first came he had it, but he's developed differently.

He deserves better than having to play with Hazard and Willian in this form. Thats for damn sure.

Also fair play at Alonso, being here for all of 3 weeks, going over and applauding the fans at the end. The lot who have been here for years, and didnt, need to be sorted.

I'd drive Courtois to the airport myself.

The Arsenal fans gave him a round of applause for his efforts. He walked slow to embrace the deserved praise.

Hard not to pick Cahill, but I feel Ivanovic edged it.

Whoever played this tonight is in the hospital with alcohol poisoning right now....
